Two days later, at the Nanjiang City Resources Bureau,
A staff member with a smile and a hint of respect in his eyes said,
"Brother Han Fei, these are materials sent from above, and they require your personal signature!"
"En, okay, thank you."
Chen Shu nodded, preparing to collect the official nuclear bomb materials, which would also allow him to obtain a hundred bottles of nuclear bombs for free.
The two walked and talked, arriving in front of a huge warehouse.
"It's inside."
The staff member opened the warehouse door, revealing stacks upon stacks of beast-taming materials, all emitting a scorching aura, making the entire warehouse resemble a furnace.
"This is worth over a hundred billion..."
Chen Shu stepped into the warehouse, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
In reality, the price was secondary; the crucial aspect was its rarity.
In this current era of turmoil, the importance of basic materials was self-evident. Major forces were meticulously allocating them.
Gold-grade materials were even rarer, but fortunately, only one portion was needed, making its value less than a thousand portions of basic materials.
"Rabbit, pack it up and take it away!"
He summoned his Space Rabbit and then left the warehouse, returning to the side of the staff member.
"I'll sign it."
He trusted the elder and didn't need to scrutinize anything. He took the list and began to sign.
In a short while,
The Space Rabbit, with a look of satisfaction, left the warehouse.
"Alright."
Chen Shu handed the list to the staff member and said, "I've signed everything. Can I leave now?"
"Of course."
With that said, Chen Shu instantly vanished from the spot and returned home.
"I'm so envious..."
The staff member muttered to himself, contemplating how cool it would be if he could teleport.
He shook his head, ending his daydream, and walked to the warehouse door.
Just as he was about to close it, he froze and instinctively exclaimed,
"What the hell?!"
The warehouse was completely empty. Not a single item was left. This was normal, as all the materials in the warehouse belonged to Chen Shu.
But the problem was that the ground of the warehouse was bare, even the floorboards had been ripped up...
Staring at the spotlessly clean warehouse, the staff member's mind was in utter chaos.
Is this the professional integrity of Nanjiang's Han Fei...
...
"A thousand portions, a thousand portions..."
Chen Shu mumbled, not having a concrete idea of how long it would take.
He returned to his room and took out a thousand portions of fire-attribute materials, all basic grade.
After five years, he never imagined he would one day use basic potions.
"Start configuring!"
He took a deep breath and approached the table, simultaneously opening the system's potion configuration interface in his mind.
[Please place the materials needed for explosive potions into the system space...]
"En?"
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, as this was beyond his expectations.
"I don't need to configure it myself?"
His heart trembled, and he placed the thousand portions of basic materials and one portion of gold-grade material into the system space.
[Please place any materials to obtain potion catalyst points...]
He didn't hesitate and threw in the official materials. Most of them were silver grade, with various attributes. These were not too scarce.
In a short while, ten potion catalyst points were gathered.
"It really cost a hundred million..."
He roughly estimated the value of the materials, with about ten million equaling one potion catalyst point.
"So, a nuclear bomb is roughly three to four hundred million?"
He made a simple estimation using market prices. Of course, in these chaotic times, material values were unstable and could only serve as a reference.
"But no matter how you calculate it, it's cheaper than the last time I exchanged for poison-attribute materials."
He felt a pang of heartache. Back then, it was at least tens of billions worth of poison-attribute materials, yet he only got a small amount of nuclear bombs.
"A huge loss..."
He sighed, unable to calm down for a long time. However, if he could go back, he would still make the same choice without hesitation, as it involved the activation of the illustrated handbook.
In a short while, the system's voice appeared in his mind:
[Configuration successful, potion has been automatically placed in the system space! Proficiency +0.1%...]
"En?"
Chen Shu was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected it to take less than ten minutes to configure one bottle, which was faster than he imagined. San Feng 11
More importantly, he didn't need to configure it himself, which meant it would be produced continuously twenty-four hours a day.
"And there's proficiency, could it have other uses?"
He fantasized, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.
For convenience, Chen Shu simply placed all eleven hundred portions of potion materials from the officials into the system space, activating the automatic托管 mode.
He chuckled to himself, "Is this not more capable than a production team's donkey?"
Just then, Chen Shu's phone rang.
"Hello? It's me! Andre, you've arrived?!"
His brows twitched, and he immediately became excited. It was Andre from the Snow Country, who was here to participate in the Starry Sky Ruins.
Ten minutes later, at the 'Long Time No See' coffee shop.
"Andre, how have you been lately?"
Chen Shu smiled faintly. Sitting opposite him was a burly man, also with a smile on his face.
They had met during the World Championship and later adventured together in the Starry Sky Ruins, thus forming a bit of a friendship.
"Alas, don't mention it. The Snow Country's territory is constantly being invaded, and the number of fierce beasts is terrifying."
Andre's brows furrowed slightly with worry, and he said,
"But fortunately, there's you, who has temporarily halted the beasts' offensive."
Because of the [Great Disaster] event, the high-level fierce beasts from the sea were still focused on cleaning up their homes...
"It was just a casual gesture."
Chen Shu shrugged and said, "But it didn't have a fundamental effect."
He had merely bought time; he couldn't reverse the situation.
"Yes, the crisis is coming again."
Andre smiled and said, "I'm here specifically to participate in the ruins while there's still some time."
The foul smell in the air had now become extremely thin, indicating that the oceanic waste was gradually being cleaned up.
According to expert estimates, it would likely be within the next one to two months that the fierce beasts would launch a full-scale offensive again.
Andre asked, "Now, can we participate in the Starry Sky Ruins?"
"Of course!"
Chen Shu nodded. A year had long passed, so the checkpoints could naturally be activated at any time.
"However, we might have to wait a couple of days. My friend will also be participating. Can you wait for that?"
"Of course."
Andre nodded, then his expression became a little constrained, and he said cautiously,
"Actually, I came to see you today because there's something I want to ask of you..."
"En? What?"
Chen Shu looked puzzled, but his heart was as clear as a mirror.
"Well, you are the controller of the ruins, can you go a little easy on the difficulty..."
If it were according to the usual difficulty, most beast tamers wouldn't even get ten points of Star Power.
But with Chen Shu's hidden assistance, the rewards could at least double.
"This, well..."
Chen Shu frowned, speaking with a hint of embarrassment, "Actually, this matter is really difficult to handle."
"To be honest, last time I went out to sea to confront a legendary creature, I used a lot of the ruins' power, which has caused the ruins' Star Spirit to have some opinions about me..."
Andre quickly said, "We can give you money!"
"En?"
Chen Shu's expression froze, then his tone changed, and he said with a full smile,
"Then this matter is very easy to handle!"
"..."
Andre's mouth gaped slightly. Is this the speed at which the Han Fei's expression changes...
He tentatively said, "Won't the ruins' Star Spirit have any objections..."
"What Star Spirit?"
"???"
